Let's Talk About Ingredients

Assante Oil
What do we know about the ingredients in the products we use daily?
I know for me, it was never a big deal to check out ingredients. I didn't even find it important to check for calories, carbs, fats or anything. Truly not understanding the short or long term effects of the value of any those things above!
Now, it's more important than ever to know and understand what's in the products we use. WHY? Because there are so many synthetic, processed and hybrid ingredients that the short or long term effect has yet to be proven.
The hype today is "ALL NATURAL" and everything sells itself on being all natural but what is all natural?

Let's get to know each of these ingredients and there benefits. In this article we will learn about 1) Castor Oil and 2) Soy oil.
Castor Oil
C astor oil is a nutrient-dense oil extracted from castor beans. It has many medicinal, household, and pharmaceutical uses, and is also widely used in skincare and cosmetics for its healing properties.
The use of Castor oil on a regular basis helps lubricate the hair shaft, increasing flexibility and decreasing the chance of breakage. Castor oil can also assist with preventing and/or eliminating dandruff.
Soy Oil
Soy Oil: a pale yellow drying or semidrying oil that is obtained from soybeans and used as a source of phospholipids, fatty acids, and sterols.
Soybean oil's main asset to hair is moisture retention. This carrier oil is full of good fatty acids, manganese, and vitamins. As if that is not good enough, the lipids in the oil helps hair treatments to absorb better into your hair. A non-greasy carrier oil that will improve moisture retention and shine.
What we now understand is that oils obtained from these two beans offer lubricants to add flexibility thus decreasing breakage and adding moisture retention to keep hair hydrated between washes with it still holding its shine.
